Verne Troyer's Estate Billed $364k for Hospital Stay Before His Death

Verne Troyer‘s estate is getting a harsh reminder about the high cost of medical care, because it just got a hefty bill for his final days in an L.A. hospital.

According to legal docs, obtained by TMZ, Valley Presbyterian Hospital slapped Verne’s estate with a $364,797.05 invoice for his nearly three week hospitalization. Verne eventually died there from alcohol abuse.
